Sooo....

The weekend was very very cool. Kinda strange, in that it wasn't your average weekend, but it was awesome nonetheless... (There's that word again, Zimon.)

FRIDAY:
Finished my SARS Ministerial Briefing Paper - note to self and anyone who needs to do anything like this in the future: Do not choose a topic that is so heavily featured in the news and also one that is so dynamic and important. That way your lack of in depth knowledge will not be so obvious..... I'm sure I did more on Friday... Ahh yes. I went op-shopping with Erica and Joel (as previous blog entry can testify). Very cool...

SATURDAY:
Having a class on a Saturday is wrong....
Needing to get up early to do this is wrong....
Going to one of your best friend's 21sts dressed as Fry is RIGHT....

Very amusing... Current Issues from 10:30-1:30, where I met such illustrious bloggers (I mean 'people') as Max, Lucie, Lauren, Jo and Jess. Freaked Paul out by using the ReciproCITY security pass to open the big yellow doors on Level 5.... ahhhhh :)

Then trained it on home, went to the Copier's to print out my Slurm can (for my Fry costume), before going along to Eug's 21st where everyone had a GREAT night. The party was attended by guests including, but not restricted to: Princess Smartipants, Daryl (from Enid Blyton books), TWO Mavericks, (Top Gun) Rogue, Wolverine, Radioactive Man, Ken, Ryu, Barbie, the Wicked Witch, Tony Soparano, TWO Wednesdays, Little Red Riding Hood, Darth Vader, Superman, Sandy (Grease), Fry, Dr. Carter, Agent Smith, Neo, Mary Poppins and a Chimney Sweep... + a man with a very tight suit.... The list goes on!!!

It was much fun. As I'm sure I mentioned to more than one person over the course of the night, costume parties are great in that everyone has an instant ice-breaker... Very very cool.... Home at 3.

SUNDAY:
Made way into Birrarung Marr for the BBQ to end all BBQs. Attended by Zimon, Yoshi, Erica, Keri, Luke and JOEL, not to mention the addition of Simon's brother and (girl?)friend.
It was really really cool. We had fudge, mudcake, Pfeffernüsse, beer hamburgers/sausages/bbq food....
Yes, it was all my fault.

A great weekend.
Less than a week to Canberra..... the nervous is intensifying.

For anyone wishing to have a look at where I'll be staying (Fenner Hall, at the ANU), check out this link: Fenner Hall Virtual Tour Check out how big that kitchen is! Guess I'll have to learn how to cook. Erica, any tips? Looks very very cool....
